Definitions

  • the invention relates to a cable guide.
  • a cable guide is known from EP 1616376 B1.
  • the cable guide described therein is provided with a connecting system displaying a ball and a correspondingly shaped socket.
  • the parts For handling, especially for connecting the individual links of the cable guide, the parts have to be pivoted through an angle of 90° to the longitudinal axis of the cable guide. This can lead to rather awkward handling in the case of cable guides, energy guiding chains, etc. with a relatively large diameter.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to design a cable guide, energy chain or similar in such a way that, with a simple arrangement and configuration of the connecting components, it is easy to handle during assembly and disassembly. Virtually cardanic pivoting of the individual links relative to each other is to be possible in this context.
  • a cable guide herein, consisting of links, connected to each other in articulated fashion, capable of angling in at least two directions relative to each other, and open on a face end, which are arranged behind each other in a longitudinal direction of the cable guide and form at least one guide channel by means of external guide elements, wherein a joint is located between two of the connected links within the cable guide, and wherein each of the two connected links has a corresponding connecting element having first and second connecting components, characterized in that the first connecting component of the connecting element is a fork-shaped design having two legs a distance apart from each other and each leg having an opening therein, and the second connecting component has a first seat having a spherical boundary surface and a joint element having an opening and a spherical outer boundary surface adapted to the spherical boundary surface of the first seat, wherein the joint element is mounted in the first seat in moveable fashion, and the second component having the joint element located therein can be positioned between the two legs of the first
  • the individual components consist entirely or predominantly of plastic and can be produced using known manufacturing methods.
  • the elasticity inherent in the customary plastics can also be exploited here to simplify handling, e.g. in that use is made of easily makable and breakable snap connections.
  • FIG. 1 A front view of a link of a first practical example of a cable guide
  • FIG. 2 A sectional view of two connected links along line A-A in FIG. 1 ,
  • FIG. 3 A view, corresponding to FIG. 2 , of two links of the cable guide immediately before their assembly
  • FIG. 4 A perspective view of a first connecting pin
  • FIG. 5 A view of a detail of the fork-shaped connecting component with inserted pin
  • FIG. 6 A view corresponding to FIG. 5 , where the individual parts are in a different position relative to each other,
  • FIG. 7 A front view of a link of a second practical example of a cable guide
  • FIG. 8 The associated rear view
  • FIG. 9 A longitudinal section through the cable guide according to FIGS. 7 and 8 , illustrating the insertion of the hinge pins to make a connection between two adjacent links
  • FIG. 10 A view corresponding to FIG. 9 , showing the removal of the hinge pins to break the connection between two adjacent links
  • FIG. 11 A side view of a second connecting pin
  • FIG. 12 A perspective view of this connecting pin.
  • Cable guide 10 displays a plurality of links 12 , which are connected to each other in articulated fashion in the manner of a chain, can each be angled virtually in all directions relative to each other, are open on the face end, and are provided with a shell section 14 that is of closed design, where appropriate, and has rotationally symmetrical external contours.
  • the shell sections demarcate at least one guide channel 16 , 17 for the cables, lines, etc. to be accommodated within the chain.
  • Each link 12 is provided with a connecting element 18 , which is connected to the respective shell section 14 via an essentially radial web 15 or the like, and displays two components 20 , 22 .
  • First component 20 is designed as a fork with two legs 24 , 26 , both of which are provided with an opening 27 , 28 .
  • Second component 22 displays an arm 23 , which is provided with an opening 32 , the boundary surface of which is spherical and forms a first seat for a joint element 34 , which has a correspondingly spherical external boundary surface, is provided with a central, cylindrical bore 36 , and whose axial extension corresponds to the distance between the two legs 24 , 26 .
  • Two adjacent links 12 are connected in that—starting from the position of the components shown in FIG. 3 , for example—second connecting component 22 of the one link is inserted between the two legs of first connecting component 20 of the adjacent link in such a way that bores 27 , 28 in the two legs 24 and 26 are aligned with bore 36 in joint element 34 of second connecting component 22 , such that all bores 27 , 28 and 36 form a second seat for a cylindrical pin 30 , which can be inserted from the respective starting position shown in FIG. 3 into bore 27 in leg 24 , and farther into the final position according to FIG. 2 in this second seat.
  • FIGS. 1 to 6 show a first embodiment of the means making the connection between two adjacent links 12 .
  • One end of cylindrical pin 30 the outside diameter of which is adapted to the inside diameter of bore 36 of joint element 34 of the second connecting component, retained between legs 24 , 26 , and to that of the bores in the two legs 24 , 26 of the first connecting component—displays snap-in lugs 38 , which project outwards beyond the contour of the cross-section of pin 30 .
  • Said snap-in lugs 38 are each located on the free end of a web 40 .
  • FIGS. 4 and 5 reveal that webs 40 , which are integrally connected to pin 30 , are, on the rear side, i.e.
  • each assigned a clearance zone 46 into which the webs can be deflected when a force acting roughly radially inwards is applied to the snap-in lugs. Clearance zone 46 also permits slight lateral deflection of webs 40 .
  • Opening 28 in second leg 26 which accommodates the end area of pin 30 provided with snap-in lugs 38 , is provided with a wider cross-section 42 at its end facing away from first leg 24 , said wider cross-section 42 being designed and positioned in such a way that its shorter axis corresponds to the diameter of opening 28 , and its longer axis, perpendicular thereto, is larger than the diameter of opening 28 or the shorter axis of this ellipse-like wider cross-section 42 (cf. FIGS. 4 and 5 ).
  • snap-in lugs 38 are, owing to bevel 44 provided on their respective free end, and their elasticity, or that of webs 40 that bear them, forced inwards into the respective clearance zone 46 ( FIG. 5 ) until the snap-in lugs are located within the circular contour of pin 30 , thus not forming an obstacle in the form of a stop or the like during insertion into the second seat.
  • the depth of wider cross-section 42 parallel to the longitudinal axis of bore 42 roughly corresponds to the dimension of the snap-in lugs in the same direction.
  • a step is formed that has a stop face 48 lying perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of bore 28 , and behind which snap-in lugs 38 reach when pin 30 assumes the corresponding angular position in its circumferential direction, in which snap-in lugs 38 are each located in the area of stop faces 48 .
  • the snap-in lugs assume a position in which webs 40 that bear them are still under a certain degree of outwardly oriented prestress, such that the position of pin 30 is protected against longitudinal displacement by the positive connection existing between snap-in lugs 38 and stop face 48 .
  • pin 30 is provided with a preferably continuous flange 49 (cf. FIGS. 2 and 4 ), which engages a corresponding wider area 50 on the side of bore 27 in leg 24 facing away from leg 26 .
  • the angular position in which pin 30 is inserted into the second seat, formed by the fork and joint element 34 is initially irrelevant because, owing to bevel 44 provided on their free ends, snap-in lugs 38 are displaced into clearance zone 46 anyway as a result of the inwardly oriented forces acting in a direction towards the longitudinal axis of the pins, until the outer edges of the snap-in lugs no longer project outwards beyond the contour of the pin or the cross-section of bores 27 , 28 and 36 .
  • FIG. 6 reveals that, in the course of the rotary movement, the snap-in lugs are forced inwards, i.e. into the respectively associated clearance zone 46 (cf. FIG. 5 ), by the continuous wall bordering wider cross-section 42 , thus being disengaged from stop face 48 .
  • Both ends of pin 30 are provided with recesses 52 , 54 , which are not shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 and each display a corresponding cross-section, which can be engaged by a correspondingly shaped tool in order to rotate the pin into the respectively required position about its longitudinal axis.
  • Shell sections 14 of the individual links 12 are provided with corresponding openings 56 , through which a tool can be inserted in order to turn pin 30 about its longitudinal axis in the necessary manner.
  • joint element 34 can be retained in seat 32 by means of a snap connection, where pin 30 , located within bore 36 , secures this snap connection.
  • FIGS. 7 to 12 corresponds to that in FIGS. 1 to 6 in essential respects.
  • the reference numbers used for identical parts are therefore also identical, but 100 higher in each case.
  • connecting components 120 , 122 of the second practical example are located in such a way, in relation to the longitudinal extension of web 115 bearing connecting elements 118 , that the longitudinal axis of openings 127 , 128 and 136 in the two connecting components, which form the seat for pin 130 , lies essentially parallel to the longitudinal axis of web 115 .
  • the longitudinal axis of the latter constitutes a diameter of the cross-sectional area demarcated by the respective shell section 114 .
  • openings 156 in shell sections 114 of links 112 through which a tool 158 is inserted into the interior cross-sectional area of the respective link 112 for manipulating connecting pin 130 , are arranged in such a way that they are oriented roughly coaxially to pin 130 in its active position and to the seat accommodating it, in order to make pin 130 accessible at both ends, be it for inserting the pin into its active position for making the connection between two adjacent links 112 ( FIG. 9 ), or be it for breaking this connection by ejecting the pin from the seat formed by the two connecting components 120 , 122 and arm 123 ( FIG. 10 ).
  • This arrangement of the connecting components, with corresponding arrangement of openings 156 for passing the tool through, has the advantage that the latter does not have to be moved through one of guide channels 116 , 117 , accommodating cables, lines or similar, in order to gain access to the pin when manipulating connecting pin 130 . Rather, tool 158 can be moved along the web, i.e. in the area outside guide channels 116 , 117 , and thus outside the cables, etc. accommodated by them, in which context the web can, where appropriate, also act as a guide for the tool.
  • pin 130 is again provided with snap-in lugs 138 , which are borne by webs 140 .
  • the snap-in lugs and the webs can be integrally connected to the cylindrical pin. However, they are arranged and dimensioned in such a way that the divided ring 139 formed by snap-in lugs 138 displays a maximum diameter that need not be larger than that of the actual pin 130 .
  • FIGS. 9 and 10 reveal that a snap-in seat 160 , forming a segment of a circle, is assigned to leg 126 of connecting component 120 .
  • Said snap-in seat 160 is adapted to the shape of the snap-in lugs, and the snap-in lugs snap into it in the active, final position of pin 130 , shown at the bottom in FIG. 9 .
  • the snap-in lugs reach behind a ledge-shaped projection 162 that demarcates snap-in seat 160 .
  • the pin is secured in its position as a result.
  • this projection 162 is not present over the entire circumference of pin 130 , because the pin seat is only present over part of the circumference in the end area of the pin, although it should advantageously extend over at least 180°.
  • pin 130 with snap-in lugs 138 and the webs bearing them, is made of plastic offers the possibility, if and when necessary, of ejecting pin 130 from its seat effecting the connection between two adjacent links 112 , e.g. in successive steps as indicated in FIG. 10 , where, owing to the elasticity of the material, the snap-in lugs are displaced inwards, i.e. towards the longitudinal axis of the pin, and thus disengaged from the snap-in seat.
  • Pin 130 of the second practical example does not need a continuous flange on its end facing away from the snap-in lugs, as it is protected again displacement in both longitudinal directions when the snap-in lugs snap into snap-in seat 160 .
  • snap-in seat 160 can also be designed to extend continuously over more than 180°, in which context the snap-in lugs accordingly also engage the snap-in seat in distributed fashion over a larger area, or over the entire circumference, if appropriate. However, this is generally not necessary in view of the only slight forces acting on the pin in its longitudinal direction.
  • the individual links 12 , 112 can be manufactured from plastic in one piece, apart from pin 30 , 130 and joint element 34 , 134 , mounted in moveable fashion in arm 23 , 123 .
